tf-ive Oleoen Women
By RUTH VAN BUSKIRK
A three-year law course following two rears of diversi
fied subjects is task enough for men; but this year twenty
five per cent of the students enrolled in the law school are
women, showing that women can "take it," too. Thev un
flinchingly consider the years of hard work—the many nights
of "burning the midnight oil'’ in the law library.
All of them are friendly, well-rounded Paris—socially and
academically. Call any one of
them, however, most any time
and you'll get the reply, “You
can reach her at law school.''
Caught at work, indeed!
Matilda Barecevic stated with
mgh when asked why she had
chosen law, “Well, there have
never been any lawyers in my
family—and it sounded like a
good major to me!” She sees
great opportunities in the field
of tax law.
Law Sounded Interesting
Sue Minor groaned softly at
the question and murmured,
“Golly, what a spot! But really,
I took it because it sounded in
teresting—and I like it—so far!
No. I haven’t any definite plans
yet,” she concluded.
“Law is a good thing to have
to fall back on if you need to,”
Shirley Gravely seriously pro
nounced—“but personally, I'd
rather get married and leave
law practice to the men!”
How the men look upon this
“sudden surge” to the law school
■"■‘S stated concisely by Carl
Km.ter, “We certainly feel for the
women,” he proclaimed, “but it’s
a good background. The fact is,
women with a legal background
ought to make better wives!—
How?—Why by maintaining dis
cipline in the family, of course!”
Women Lawyers Needed
Jeanette Thatcher, senior wom
an in law, however, considers that
women have a very definite place
in active law. “Now, with men
being called into the service and
with all the war prosperity and
other current problems there is
more demand than ever for law
yers—and for women lawyers!”

All out for body conditioning!
No, we aren't P.E. majors, and
we don't cover the P.E. depart
ment. and we aren't even the
athletic type, but it's best to be
prepared for that gruelling event,
“Coed Capers.” Senior girl cops,
who will be decked out in bor
rowed lettermen's sweaters for
the event, are rumored to be, ac
cording to sources close to the
publicity committee of the Ca
pers, allegedly enrolling in body
conditioning classes ,in order to
be in the pink to eject all males
so insane as to invade Gerlinger
the eve of November 12. (pant,
pant.) Perhaps a little morale
building is needed too, to get up
enough nerve to wear some of
those gruesome costumes. Re

in diapers last year ?
THE PLUG DEPARTMENT:
This is a plug to remember, you
activity-minded and non-activity
minded kiddies. ... Be sure and
do your good deed a day either
at the Red Cross center at Chap
man (third floor) or some typ
ing, etc., for the enlisted reserve
corps in Commerce.
"Penny” Nichols and “Pewee’
Ross are two activity acrobats
in charge of the Phi Theta as
sembly next Tuesday (Gerlinger,
4:00). It promises to be another
“bang-up (unquote) affair, with
lots of real, "clever-like” enter
tainment. In charge of the three
skits are Mary Bentley, Rohda
Harkson, and Barbara Lamb.
Two males, in the persons of Sig
Eps Keith Hoppes and Bob
Mundt, will also present some
thing humorous.
No kiddin’, AWS is pulling off
its long-awaited assembly with
Mr. Hoyt Franchere lecturing on
“The Rise of Jazz.” They're still
dickering for the music audito
rium. It’s going to be good, in
caps.
Must remind you that “it’s a
woman’s world” again.

Here is news in spades! Con
nie Fagan, acting in the capacity
of her new job, is going to pre
sent a fashion show for the wom
en of the University of Oregon.
In her letter she described enough
of the clothes to make me wild
with anticipation of seeing the
real thing. "One that we expect
to be most popular,” she writes,
“is the off-red velveteen suit,
whose jacket has scalloped edge
down the front with interesting
gold buttons that can be matched
in earrings.” As if that weren’t
enough, she continued, “Because
lines are to be simple and col
ors brilliant we designed a vivid
green crepe with peg-top skirt;
the only decoration being a glit
tering black clip near the left
shoulder." Of course Connie
couldn't resist adding a post
script to her letter saying that
she had bought the first coat of
natural nylon fleece on the west
coast.
Our houseboys are about to
split a gusset beeause they arc
so mad at me. They don't seem
to understand that you've got to
keep angora sweaters in the re
frigerator if you want to keep
them nice! Brushing the sweat
er makes it look a lot better,
but keeping it in an ice-cold
place stops it from becoming
matted.
You were right about the Ore
• gon weather, and now I am glad
that you insisted upon my buy
ing that natural colored, red
Jined raincoat, the red rubber
boots (they survived the rubber
drive by a miracle), and especial
ly the red so'-wester. My room
mate came here unprepared and
nearly drowned until her mother
sent her a Red-Riding-Hood. The
hood protects her hair and it's
the envy of many of us.
After reading Connie's letter I
decided on a shopping tour for
this P.M. Something in a. pale
lavendar wool seems to appeal
full description later.
Hurriedly yours,
Gerry Stowell.
